A Fortune Told

The Czar called his wizard

To ask what he could see

About his daughter’s future

“Would she make history?”

 

“Sire, I see two futures:

On a throne as a Purple Queen

Powerful in majesty

But sorrowful in the extreme”

 

“Princess Aurora will feel such woe

From her eyes of  Dazzling blue

A Trail of Tears will surely flow

Her life an unhappy sorrow”

 

“What then shall I do?”

The mighty Czar did ask

“Let her follow love instead of power

That will be your task”

 

“Let her find her own way

This is the thing to do,

Allow her to follow her heart

Which is Tender and True”

 

So the great king did relent

And Aurora her own choices made

Twelve hearty grandchildren for the Czar

She bore and a dynasty was made
